Ramadan Series: Stuffed Dates

Dates have more than two hundred varieties that can be produced, large mejhoul dates are the ones used for special occasions and special recipes like these stuffed dates. Typically, the almond paste is much sweeter than in this recipe, and the stuffed date can be rolled in sugar. However, at ICCA Dubai we prefer to let the dates’ natural and intense sweetness shine.

To make the dates festive, many add some food coloring—red, green, yellow, even blue—into the almond paste before stuffing it inside the dates.
